I’ve rounded up some of my favorite summer home decor from H&M right now, they are killing it with the summer vibes. And I’m not sure if I’ve shared this before, but my favorite place to look for anything linen for around my house. So I figured I would share what I love, because chances are you’re going to love it too!
Hello Friends! I have been working on a secret project lately, that I can’t wait to share with you soon. Until then, I have been loving the look of dark accent walls, and I thought I would share some of my favorites with you. I think I love dark accent walls just as much as I love white walls, and I also believe that every home should have at least one dark wall, if not a whole room 🙂
On this Mothers Day, I wanted to share with you a little bit about my journey in motherhood so far. I cap it at “so far” because well, I’m right in the middle of it. I’m past the throws of the infant stage and toddler hood, and no sleep, and right in the sweet spot of “I can wipe my own bum” and “tie my own shoes” and there is no sign of pre-teen drama. And even if we aren’t at the same stage in life, or motherhood for that matter, I really just wanted to share what has impacted me, what I’ve learned so far, lol. Because if you haven’t been in toddlerhood for a while, it is no joke my friend! While I still have a long ways to go, here are 5 things I’ve learned so far.
I am SO excited to share our new barn door we installed in our kitchen with you today! It’s actually been something I’ve wanted to do for years, but you know how those things go that aren’t necessarily on the top burner, yeah they get pushed aside, and pushed aside. Well not anymore thanks to my friends at Artisan Hardware. I’ve teamed up with them to show you their beautiful barn doors. Honestly what caught my eye with them was their gorgeous hardware. It’s perfect farmhouse look, crafted right here in US, and honestly it was the attention to detail. If you know me at all by now, you know I’m all about the details. And I think you will see what I mean.
Hello Friends! Happy Friday!! Yes you read that title correctly – we rented a BobCat! My son liked to joke the whole time saying “Where I don’t see a bobcat?!”. He thought he was pretty funny! I shared in my landscaping post, we have totally switched gears after renovating our master bathroom and turned our attention towards our outdoor spaces. So to tackle one of our bigger projects we rented a bobcat, cleared some land, and laid down some crushed stone. The same kind of stone we used in our outdoor patio area. So today I’m going to show you the area we cleared, and how we install our crushed stone.
Hello Friends! Mothers day is fast approaching, and if you caught this years mothers day tablescape, then you know I went all “Pretty in Pink”, with some beautiful pink ranunculus. I am no florist by any means, but I’ve thrown together an arrangement from time to time. I usually love to enlist the help of my talented friend Christi from Twig & Tulip. She is what I like to call a ninja master when it comes to arranging beautiful flowers. She created the lovely arrangement on last years Mother’s Day tablescape, and so many more for other tablescapes I’ve done in the past. But every now and then (usually when I procrastinate) I try my hand at it.
Hello Friends, and happy Monday!! I’m so excited to be joining in with some friends today for a little look around our home. Spring finally hit us last week. Like finally. It’s my favorite couple of weeks, and I’m not quite sure if I love it more than fall ( I think I do), because with everything starting to bloom, it feels so magical. It’s the best reward after a long winter, and the anticipation and excitement each tiny bud brings is a reminder of lazy summer days ahead.
Do you dread that question? Nothing hits me more like a ton of bricks than when my kids ask me “what’s for dinner”, and I don’t have an answer. I’ve mentioned before that this season in our life definitely has it’s moments of being “busy”, and I’m told it only increases as we get into those teen years. When my kids were little I really started getting serious about cutting our processed foods, and being conscious of ingredients and what we were eating. But lately with spring sports in full swing, weeknight programs, and work getting busy, I’m finding myself reaching for the box of Annie’s mac & cheese more and more. I once heard the saying that when a creative person gets interrupted it’s like derailing a train, and it takes forever for them to get back on course. I can’t even tell how true that’s been in my own creative business, so when I’m working on a design board or editing photos, and trying to get that one last thing done before the day is over, and I hear “mom, what’s for dinner?” I panic.
I get it. What do you get the women who means the most to you. Or perhaps you don’t have the closest relationship with your mom, but you still want to get her something special. Something unique. Something that says I care about you, without it being the same thing you bought her last year, or dare I even say the last 5 years?! It’s ok, I’ve got you covered today!
